Description
The Biostatistics, Epidemiology and Research Design (BERD) Voucher program is administered by Frontiers Clinical & Translational Science Institute. It supports researchers at Frontiers partner institutions who need biostatistical assistance but have no access to other funding for that support. Vouchers cover the costs of study design, data analysis, and bioinformatics work associated with investigators’ research projects.
The program focuses on research services and the design and analytical aspects of studies, rather than a specified disease or individual research question. Frontiers also follows the research outputs associated with approved vouchers, contacting principal investigators about related publications, abstracts, and grant submissions within one year of approval.
